NOBODY is talking about this fight for some reason.HBO Saturday night.I'm pumped for this one.Winky is back almost a 2 year layoff.Wright is a former top 5 fighter and he takes on my pound for pound king.I could see this going many different ways. I love "The Puinsher" but he's in for a tough battle.

I'm thinking Winky's long layoff, and possibly his fighting style, has something to do with the overall ambiguity surrounding this fight. He used to be one of my favorite fighters, but all of the bellyaching about being cheated out of the Taylor and Hopkins decisions and then not fighting for forever...I guess I sort of forgot about what it is about his game that I appreciated so much to begin with.

I like Dan Birmingham too being that he's from my hometown and he appears to do things the "right" way. They just sort of rendered themselves irrelevant with the layoff...although that may change on Saturday.

This fight also sets up to be very tactical and not a high action affair that again Winky loses on a close decision, not necessarily captivating TV though. Arreola vs McCline...that may be the more interesting fight of the night IMO.
